Quotes
-
Leslie Saunders : Well, what can you do besides look rather too good-looking?
Richard Carleton : Well, I... I'm, a champion swimmer, rattling good game of tennis, fair golf, and I rumba like the angel Gabriel.
-
Richard Carleton : Don't hydraulic engineers ever rumba?
Leslie Saunders : Rarely, and not very well.
-
Leslie Saunders : Planning to stay long?
Richard Carleton : I hadn't. Now that I see you again...
Leslie Saunders : You've never seen me before.
Richard Carleton : I've seen you all my life, in my dreams.
Leslie Saunders : That's not a very good line.
-
Leslie Saunders : Why come to me?
Richard Carleton : Well, I was walking along and suddenly an unseen spirit grabbed me by the arm and lead me straight up here to you. It's kismet! Now, you think that means we have to marry each other? If you're not otherwise engaged, of course.
Leslie Saunders : I do not and I can't make up my mind whether you're a lunatic or merely very young.
Richard Carleton : I'm neither. I'm just lonely.
-
Richard Carleton : Did anyone ever tell you, that you have the most...
Leslie Saunders : Yes, often.
-
Leslie Saunders : We need somebody to sort the mail. Two quid a week. Come back in the morning, eight o'clock.
Richard Carleton : I'm yours to command! You couldn't make it nine o'clock, could you?
Leslie Saunders : Eight o'clock.
-
Leslie Saunders : I wonder if you'd have any idea what sort I really am?
Richard Carleton : Of course I have. Sane. Practical.
Leslie Saunders : That's right.
Richard Carleton : Ambitious. Hard working.
Leslie Saunders : That's right.
Richard Carleton : Utterly moral.
Leslie Saunders : Utterly.
Richard Carleton : Straight on the shoulder.
Leslie Saunders : Straight as a rivet.
Richard Carleton : Well, in that case, I should think you'd greatly admire me if I skipped all the approachment and just kissed you without any preliminaries.
Leslie Saunders : I should not only admire you, I should respect you.
Richard Carleton : Well, there's something to be said for your philosophy.
